Bubble: Almost all international moving services in Dubai know how to use bubble wrap and for what items it should be used. It is normally used for glassware and with enough layers, it can protect a range of items other than glassware. The air pockets make it lightweight yet strong and sturdy enough for moving purposes. It completely protects the items from dirt and scratches. There are a variety of thickness and sizes available in bubble wrap.
Cardboard box: Cardboard boxes are by far the most versatile and practical packing equipment. It is used in long distance as well as short distance moving. It is essential in every kind of move as well. Packers and movers from Dubai to India use these cardboard boxes of varying sizes depending on what item of yours they are packing. These boxes can be easily folded and put away because of the cardboard they are made of and they cost less than other packing equipment that you and your home shifting services have to invest in at the time of the move.
Speciality boxes: Nowadays, there are various kinds of boxes for different items. They vary in shape, size, thickness and strength. Below mentioned are some of the speciality boxes.
a) Wardrobe boxes: These boxes are specially made for your clothes to be shifting to Dubai from India or other cities. When you have too many clothes this is a great packing option to consider because this speciality box will make sure that your clothes don’t get damaged and wrinkled during the move. These boxes have a metal bar for holding hangers.
b) Electronic boxes: These boxes are used by the moving companies in Dubai to move electronic items. Monitors, LCD, LED TV, computers and other electronic items are moved in these boxes to avoid any problems with static electricity.
c) Heavy- duty boxes: Boxes like these are used for moving delicate furniture like plants and lampshades. These boxes have double walls
